Since the Pre-Patch launched I have encountered only one major issue, but it's driving me crazy:
I can't copy links in WIM windows any longer.
Even though the description still lists it, and my settings look the same as before, I can't copy links. They still look the same, being in the default white color, and in [...], but this special window doesn't open when I click it.
I only use one more addon that interacts with chat, which is EmoteSplitter, but disabling that didn't help either. Neither did installing an older version.
Is there anything I can do? Doesn't seem like anyone else has this issue.
Since the new upgrade a couple of days ago messages typed in other chat (i.e. the new "guild chat" window do not show up in WIM. If I type in a WIM created box for the guild chat it shows up in the guild chat window, but not in the WIM chat box window. Also the window for "say" chats does not work correctly.. The window pops up but is never populated with the text you said. And typing in that window does not show up in the general chat window as a message. (The "say" issue is an old one that I just ignored). Love your program, hope you'll update it to work correctly.
can someone please change the armory link to work again
now link is
Working link: My hunters link
REGION = en-gb now so its longer then it used to be
how to make /r to reply to the last whisperer, not to the last person i wrote? If i wrote to someone some time ago and got a new whisper /r will send message to the wrong person
Is it intercept slash commands?
Hey bro thank you for an amazing project I am using it since 2017, back I didnt even know how to disable the fade, as you see on old comments I am asking how to disable transparency haha, didnt receive a reply :'v , the grea thing is it makes my eyes be focused on conversations, Wonder if could be possible to improve the icon logo on minimap to be compatible with Custom UIs look this example. I always see WIM has an old rough logo:
Its the only thing it would make it almost perfect *.* :D
Thank you for keeping WIM updated.
so far in BfA there no major problems

my wim is locked out and i cant enable it agin some body help me
Whenever you whisper crossrealm, it gives a error so you have to avoid using WIM by double tapping enter to whisper xrealm players normally. Pretty annoying issue.
Couple big issues with WIM right now, don't know how to explain this one..
"WIM has been blocked from an action only available to the BlizzardUI"
First, Whisper Windows fade so you can see through them (Transparent) however, when you mouse over them again, they stay transparent and don't come back to opaque to read properly.
Second, for some reason whispers aren't going through if they're over the standard character limit. (255?) The addon seems to be breaking and refuses to send the message until it's shortened.
Perhaps Carbonite is limiting it for some reason, as per output result?
It's doing all sorts of things now it seems.
Tried to use a toy:
I'm sorry I know this is a dumb question. Is there still a way to get your whispers in in-line chat (my usual chat box) in addition to the pop up? Using ElvUI also if that makes a difference.
Why do I want to do this? I like WIM because it forces me to see there was a whisper when I may miss it. But I do like it disappears during combat. Sometimes though I need to see that whisper during combat and I miss it.
If that makes sense.
Thanks!

Hello how can I disable the transparency
tyvm for the recent efforts to make this wonderful addon functional in 7.3.0!
I have discovered an issue with the most recent build, it is still having trouble with officer chat. other than that i haven't had any problems.
again tyvm
In reply to Tikemison:
Yeah it's giving me an error to ignore or disable because it's blocked from an action. I disabled the guild notification and history so hopefully it will stop throwing up that error cause it's really friggan annoying
So, i finally fixed external references and got packaging/tagging working again. Enjoy 7.3 compat fixes
Yeah, WIM works fine for me until someone talks in gchat, at which point it tells me it's been blocked from an action and throws this error:
3x [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn 'WIM' tried to call the protected function 'GuildControlSetRank()'.
